No bumpers, emblems, or hood center strips; however, I have other NOS parts like sheet metal, rocker moldings, etc. if you find that you need them. Regards...
Off the topic of restoration... It looks like the end is nigh for the Pontiac brand. "There is no Plan B," said GM Chief Operating Officer Fritz Henderson, who...
You bought the 42' Torpedo that was on ebay in Whittier. It was listed twice I think,because the reserve price was not reached. I live in San Fernando and have...

Hello Raul, Yes, I got the 42 from Whittier. I got a pretty good deal. I had been talking to him for almost a year and he wanted $2500, and it didn't sell on...
GM would be making a huge mistake if they sell Pontiac. GM doesn't make anything else I'd drive. I just bought a G6 Convertible. I wonder who might buy...
Kinda a double edge sword issue....Detroit and the UAW created some of the problems they are in, but they do employ a LOT of people. A lot of people I talk to...
Hi, Glenn Yes, I have the hood release cable knob, but the '42 - '48 knob does not have a metal ring in it. I'll post a picture of it in the (PLASTIC) folder....

I'm filling in my calendar now. Both meets might work. My Pontiac in too far from driveable but maybe I'll find a key part like a 40 hood latch. Can you...
I was driving my '42 on the freeway around 60mph. And then I heard a sound like a rock in my oil pan. Later I drained the oil and removed the oil pan. To find...
Bad luck.Ii is possible to take out the pistons out from underneath on the SIX but if there is any wear on the cylinders, it is possible that the ridge at the...
If the pistons came apart like that, there is a pretty good chance that the bores may be damaged as well. Did you find any scratches or scoring in the affected...
I agree with Bart, but if you are fitting new pistons and the bores are un-damaged then they must be honed for the new rings to bed in properly. It is possible...
A little advice. When dropping the new pistons in cut 2 little pieces of rubber hose that will fit over the studs for the bearing caps. This will help you...
What gas does the Group use in their Cars? I use regular, unleaded, 87 octane, with no additives added. Thanks, Tim **************New year...new news. Be the...

Hi Dave. I think I have the same engine in mine (42 pontiac four door sedan Streamliner Chieftain, eight cylinder). What did yours do with low octane, like 87?...
If I went down to 89 it started to cough and hesitate. When I added lead additive it about threw us through the windshield tossing around. DaveP [Non-text...
